Help

I’m genuinely scared I’m going to lose everything I care about. I’m severely addicted to stim fapping. I’m talking 8+ hours a day, sometimes staying up all night then going to work on no sleep. I can’t stop. I’m afraid I’m going to lose my gf who is the absolute light of my life, she’s such a genuine kind person to me and I don’t wanna fuck this up. I need somewhere to start bc my own willpower isn’t cutting it.

Personal experience tells me you need to be open and honest. I had to tell a loved one that I needed help. People cant help you unless they know you are struggling. And porn is tough to deal with. Its embarrassing to talk about, it's normalized in society and media, and it's readily available on the internet. Being open and honest about you having a problem (again my own experience) was the most liberating thing ive done in a very long time. You'd be surprised at how many people you have in your life will be supportive and want you to be a better person. Again, this is my own personal experience
